Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP’s trial team recently secured a favorable outcome for Bobcat Endoscopy LLC (formerly, LumenR LLC) against a former consultant, Mr. Oleg Shikhman.

Following a successful asset purchase transaction between LumenR LLC and Boston Scientific Corporation, Mr. Shikhman, years after his involvement with the company, attempted to challenge the meaning of a 2009 consulting contract and made numerous allegations against the company and its founder, Dr. Gregory Piskun.

Our litigation team secured pre-trial dismissal of most of the counts asserted by Mr. Shikhman. Following a trial on the remaining counts, Bobcat Endoscopy and Dr. Piskun received a favorable verdict. In particular, the court found no liability against Dr. Piskun and dismissed all counts against him personally. The court also rejected Mr. Shikhman's attempt to obtain a seven-figure windfall and, instead, enforced the 2009 consulting agreement with Mr. Oleg Shikhman as written.

The Hunton Andrews Kurth trial team was led by Paul Ackerman, and included Gary Abelev and Greg Miller.
